Abstract:
Sir Samuel Walker Griffith (1845–1920) is distinguished as the first Australian translator of Italy’s ‘Supreme Poet’, Dante Alighieri (1265–1321). This article considers how Griffith’s entanglement with Dante casts light on the Queensland–Italian connection. First, it sketches the concept of entangled history and entanglement, an evolving transcultural historiographic approach. Second, it canvasses how entangled history can assist in appraising implications of Griffith’s recently contested legacy as Premier of Queensland. Third, it outlines points of convergence between Griffith and Dante, beginning with Griffith’s translation of Dante’s Divine Comedy. Fourth, it extends this lens on convergence to Griffith’s and Dante’s common dimensions that include Griffith’s Italophilia, and the experience of divisive, factional and fractious politics. Fifth, it narrows to consider the limited justice of contrapasso in Dante’s treatment of crime and punishment. Finally, it traverses codified justice that features in Griffith’s entanglement with Dante and the Italian Penal Code – Griffith translated Dante when drafting Queensland’s ground-breaking Criminal Code and when referencing the Italian Penal Code as a source therein. This article proposes that Griffith’s translational project was not simply a vehicle for sharpening his Italian or pursuing fame or status per se, but was a lifelong creative pursuit that offered imaginative, intellectual applications resonating with his public service values. Whatever impelled Griffith’s translations, his appreciation of Dante clearly instances Queensland–Italian interconnectedness.

Abstract:
This paper presents views of award-winning inventor Saul Griffith on creating products that are environmental friendly. Griffith presents controlling carbon emissions as not so much a moral imperative, but as an active design choice. His start-up company, Makani Power, is working to tap the energy of strong, steady winds a half mile above the ground through use of high-tech kites. Another of Griffith’s projects, the web site Wattzon, was established to enable individuals to estimate their personal power consumption. According to Griffith, objects designed to endure over decades need to be not only functional, but also beautiful. Some of the conceptual framework that Griffith lays out as heirloom design is as much provocation as proposal. It is the increase in quality that Griffith said differentiates his concept of an heirloom-based economy from the idea that constraining carbon emissions is going to require undue sacrifice or even enforced poverty.

Abstract:
The Asian genus Glyptopetalum Thwaites (1856: 267) comprises 35 species (Savinov 2014) of which 5 species are occurring in India (Ramamurthy 2000). Glyptopetalum griffithii Prain (1891: 209) was described on the basis of a single gathering obtained by Griffith from the Mishmi hills, Arunachal Pradesh, India. Later, Kanjilal et al. (1936: 266) recognized and treated this species based on a collection by Kanjilal from Pashighat in Arunachal Pradesh. Eventually Ramamurthy (2000: 112) also accepted the species in his treatment of the family Celastraceae for the Flora of India. Chakrabarty & Gangopadhyay (1990: 129) as well as Savinov (2014: 187) erroneously considered G. griffithii a name based on Euonymus griffithii Kurz (1870: 73). However, the latter was proposed as a new name for Hippocratea angulata Griffith (1854: 473), due to the existence of Euonymus angulata Wight (1846: t. 1053), whereas G. griffithii was originally described as species new to science.

Abstract:
This essay interrogates Sergei Eisenstein's critique of D. W. Griffith's montage aesthetic, arguing that, in Griffith's Orphans of the Storm, historical perspective is constituted in opposition to (rather than as a result of) the forward surge of the film's montage. Griffith represents historical consciousness through the narrative figure of trembling, harking back to Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities, another text in which the movements of history are registered on the bodies of witnesses who struggle to keep their composure. Both Griffith and Dickens construct a social world driven to extremes by competing ideological forces and imagine historical subjects whose reactions to emergency—witnessing and trembling—hold them apart from it. Ultimately, these gestures of response suggest a tendency in melodramatic texts to construct a normative subjectivity that resists the antithetical underpinnings of melodrama itself.

Abstract:
In this paper, for the first time, mathematically strictly, models of Griffiths cracks and cracks of a new type are constructed simultaneously. Accurate models are constructed as a result of the convergence of the ends of two semi-infinite deformable stamps located on a deformable multilayer base. The mechanism of destruction of the medium by cracks of a new type is radically different from the mechanism of destruction of the medium by Griffiths cracks, and has so far been poorly studied. Griffiths formed his cracks with a smooth border as a result of compression from the sides of an elliptical cavity in the plate. Cracks of a new type have a piecewise smooth border, resulting from the replacement of an ellipse with a rectangle compressed from the sides. The construction of models in the work is based precisely on these descriptions of the origin of cracks formed by the ends of approaching deformable stamps. When creating models, the results of previously performed studies on the construction of exact solutions to a number of integral equations of contact problems, published in this journal, are used. The paper found that the destruction of the medium, in the case of cracks of a new type, occurs earlier than in the case of Griffith cracks, which, according to the authors, explains the reason for the destruction of Griffith cracks in the experiment earlier than the theory predicts. Griffiths explained this by the presence of microcracks on the border of the main crack. The authors tend to believe that the cause is the transformation of one type of crack into another, under certain conditions. The results obtained make it possible to compare and quantify the behavior of the medium in the presence of both one and another type of cracks. It is applicable both for the study of mutual transitions of Griffith cracks and cracks of a new type, and for the construction of models of adhesion of wetted nanoparticles.

Abstract:
Despite exerting a considerable influence over contemporary constitutional thought, there is a very real sense in which the political constitutionalism of JAG Griffith has been neglected. This paper seeks a genuine engagement with Griffith's work and, in doing so, offers a reconstruction and partial defence of Griffith's political constitutionalism. The article characterises Griffith's political constitutionalism as ‘agonistic’– that is to say, issuing from a belief in the inescapably conflictual nature of human association. Central to this agonistic political constitutionalism is the relationship between conflict and politics – or what might be termed the political management of conflict. This paper argues that Griffith's account of conflict, although central to his constitutional thought, is underdeveloped, not least in its failure to elucidate precisely what is to be understood by ‘politics’. It is thus that the paper draws on the work of Michael Oakeshott to propose an understanding of politics as the pursuit of intimations that, it is argued, can help draw out an important blend of conflict, continuity and contingency in Griffith's political constitutionalism.

Abstract:
Though our knowledge of the transitional era has increased substantially over the last few decades, incorporating studies of pivotal institutions, exhibition and reception contexts, and forces of regulation and circulation, formal analysis of the period’s films is still indebted to the singular example of D.W. Griffith, identified as the instigator of the “narrator system” in Tom Gunning’s influential book, D.W. Griffith and the Origins of the American Narrative Film. But the historical accident that resulted in Griffith’s films surviving when those of his contemporaries largely disappeared has defined most historians’ approach to charting a history of narrational changes during the pivotal years of 1908-1913. Rather than challenge Griffith’s importance as an enterprising and influential filmmaker, historians require the means to better contextualize Griffith’s contributions, rewriting in the process a formal history that can incorporate authorship without being defined by it as a governing principle. To this end, this essay will use the opportunity provided by the ongoing restoration and distribution of Thanhouser films from 1910-1913 to investigate how the “unauthored text” from this period can aid in our endeavours to expand the contours of the historiography of the transitional era.

Abstract:
The Griffith equation for brittle cracking has three problems. First, it applies to an infinite sheet whereas a laboratory test sample is typically near 100 × 100 mm. Second, it describes a central crack instead of the more dangerous and easily observable edge crack. Third, the theory assumes a uniform stress field, instead of tensile force application used in the laboratory. The purpose of this paper is to avoid these difficulties by employing Gregory's solution in calculating the crack behaviour of PMMA (Poly Methyl Meth Acrylate) discs, pin loaded in tension. Our calculations showed that axial disc loading gave nominal strengths comparable with Griffith theory, but the force went to zero as the crack fully crossed the disc, fitting experimental results. Off-axis loading was more interesting because the predicted strength was lower than in axial testing, but also gave unexpected behaviour at short crack lengths, where nominal strength did not rise indefinitely but dropped as crack length went below D/10, quite different from Griffith, where strength rose continuously as cracks were shortened. Such off-axis loading leads to a size effect in which larger discs are weaker, reminiscent of the fine fibre strengthening phenomenon reported in Griffith's early paper (Griffith 1921 Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. A 221 , 163–198. ( doi:10.1098/rsta.1921.0006 )).

Abstract:
In the first two decades of the twentieth century, American cinema played a major role in transforming what George Fredrickson has called “the black image in the white mind.” This transformation began with the invention of cinema and climaxed withThe Birth of a Nation, a film whose appeal derived not from its content, but rather from D. W. Griffith's ability to seize on this content to provoke an intense emotional response in his viewers. This essay begins by examining some of the first images of African Americans captured on camera. It then turns to Griffith's innovations in the one- and two-reelers he made at the Biograph Company. Finally, and on the occasion of the film's hundredth anniversary, the essay provides a detailed analysis of how Griffith achieved his effect inThe Birth of a Nation. What the essay shows, ultimately, is that whereas the earliest depictions of African Americans relied on audience foreknowledge, the arrival of American narrative cinema led Griffith to create new kinds of black characters. Griffith's use of the close-up, the point of view, the shot/reverse-shot pattern, and parallel editing enabled him to convince his audiences of a “black menace” that threatened white America.

Abstract:
Les travaux présentés dans ce manuscrit s'appuient sur l'approche énergétique en mécanique de la rupture fragile proposée par G. A. Francfort et J. -J. Marigo. Ils permettent de remédier aux déficiences de cette dernière tout en gardant les principaux avantages. L'idée consiste à faire dépendre l'énergie de surface du saut de déplacement entre les lèvres de la fissure (notion de forces cohésives) et d'effectuer une recherche de minima relatifs de l'énergie totale. Sur un plan théorique, on montre que l'on peut prédire l'initiation de fissures tridimensionnelles dans un milieu sain en utilisant uniquement le principe de minimisation. Les critères d'amorçage obtenus dépendent de la forme de l'énergie de surface. Sur un plan numérique on présente deux modèles éléments finis permettant de suivre des évolutions de fissures bidimensionnelles dans une direction donnée, ainsi que des résultats de simulations sur différents cas tests
The present work relies on the energetic approach for brittle fracture proposed by G. A. Francfort and J. -J. Marigo. Developments have been made to overcome some deficiencies in this theory : the surface energy is now a function of the displacement jump between the cracks lips (cohesive forces) and the mechanical fields are calculated by seeking the local minima of the total energy. We theoretically proved that it is possible to predict the onset of three-dimensional cracking in a sound structure by using only the least energetic principle. The obtained yield criterion depends on the choice of the surface energy. Besides, two numerical models have been developed to predict a bi-dimensional crack evolution in a given direction. These types of brittle fracture models are then tested numerically by using cohesive elements in several test cases

Full text
Abstract:
L’objectif de cette thèse est de présenter la pensée populiste dans la culture américaine. Si on estime son apparition dès la guerre d’indépendance des colons britanniques d’Amérique du Nord contre la Grande-Bretagne de 1775 à 1783, le populisme américain a surtout connu son heure de gloire avec The People’s Party en 1892. De fait, ce parti populiste a cristallisé la colère des fermiers américains (dont des Afro-américains) très endettés de la fin du XIXe siècle. Ce mouvement agraire était très attaché aux idéaux pionniers et se méfiait du développement économique et du salariat (qu’il jugeait incompatible avec la liberté et la démocratie). Les Populistes défendaient l’égalité des chances, une libre entreprise tempérée par le Common Sense (le bon sens) et un pouvoir détenu par des hommes vertueux. De plus, ils soutenaient également toute forme d’opposition à la haute-finance, aux machines politiques centralisées, au fédéralisme omniprésent, à l’intellectualisme citadin. Les héros des Populistes se nomment Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson et Abraham Lincoln. Ce dernier incarne, en plus de l’humanisme, la possibilité pour l’homme ordinaire de devenir Président des États-Unis. L’idéologie populiste apparaît dans les premiers films américains. D’abord chez D. W. Griffith ou King Vidor avant de connaître son heure de gloire avec les films de John Ford, Frank Capra ou Leo McCarey dans les années trente. Après son déclin lors des années cinquante, le populisme hollywoodien va renaître dans les années soixante-dix avec des personnalités comme Clint Eastwood, Sam Peckinpah ou Michael Winner. Les années quatre-vingt vont prolonger ce retour avec le double mandat de Ronald Reagan. Oliver Stone, Sylvester Stallone ou encore John Carpenter ont continué à propager un message très proche de la tradition populiste américaine, avec notamment la mise en valeur de l’homme de la rue face à la corruption et la trahison des élites. Nous verrons donc si, de D. W. Griffith à Clint Eastwood, la fonction du héros populiste est de diviser ou d’unir le peuple américain ?
The objective of this thesis is to present the populist thought in the American culture. If we estimat his appearance from the war for independence of the British colonists of North America against Great Britain from 1775 till 1783, the American populism especially had its hour of glory with People's The Party in 1892. Actually, this popular party crystallized the anger of the American farmers (among which of the Afro-Americans) heavily indebted of the end of the XIXth century. This agrarian movement was very attached to the ideal pioneers and was wary of the economic development and the wage-earner (that he considered incompatible with the freedom and the democracy). The Populists defended the equality of opportunity, a free enterprise moderated by Common Sense and a power detained by virtuous people. Furthermore, they also supported any shape of opposition to the high finance, to the centralized political machines, to the omnipresent federalism, to the city intellectualism. The heroes of the Populists are called Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln. The latter embodies, besides the humanism, the possibility for the common person to become President of the United States. The populist ideology appears in the first American movies. At first at D. W. Griffith or King Vidor before having his hour of glory with the movies of John Ford, Frank Capra or Leo McCarey in the thirties. After its decline during the fifties, the Hollywood populism is going to be reborn in the seventies with personalities as Clint Eastwood, Sam Peckinpah or Michael Winner. Years eighty are going to extend this return with the Ronald Reagan's double mandate. Oliver Stone, Sylvester Stallone or John Carpenter continued to propagate a message very close to the American populist tradition, with in particular the development of the man in the street in the face of the corruption and the treason of elites. We shall thus see if, of D. W. Griffith to Clint Eastwood, the function of the populist hero is to divide or to unite the American people?

Abstract:
The thesis centres on the concept of connectedness to Italian cultural heritage for second and subsequent generations of descendants. The study uses semi-structured interviews with participants to investigate cultural identity for the descendants of migrants, the meaning and value attached to such identity and how these identities, once formed, may change, be maintained and transmitted among generations. The participants who inform this study are descendants of Italian migrants from the Abruzzo region in Italy who settled and raised their families in the town of Griffith in southwest NSW. Questions are investigated a) within the particular context of a rural community with a strong Italian presence (that is Griffith), (b) within a particular regional group (that is descendants of Abruzzese migrants), and (c) among different generations (that is participants who had a parent, grandparent or a great grandparent who were of Italian origin). This study explores six factors that work towards forming a sense of connectedness, namely: the family, cultural manifestations of Italian identity, visits to Italy, interaction with family in Italy, Italian language and dialect, and intermarriage. These factors rove the discussion with participants and were the basis of analysis. Findings indicate that to varying degrees participants have maintained a connection to their cultural heritage. What distinguishes them is the different connotations placed on the manifestations of that connectedness.

Abstract:
This thesis provides a reinterpretation of J.A.G. Griffith’s lecture ‘The Political Constitution’—a reinterpretation that stresses the commitment Griffith expressed in that lecture to the normative dimension of legal positivism. I call this normative dimension ‘normative positivism’. Identifying Griffith as a normative positivist serves to clarify a number of debates surrounding Griffith’s arguments in ‘The Political Constitution’ and serves to clarify our understanding of the concept that has come to be known in UK public law scholarship in recent years as ‘political constitutionalism’, of which Griffith is regarded as a leading exemplar. The thesis argues that Griffith’s political constitutionalism is best understood as a form of normative positivism and is very different from some more recent defences of political constitutionalism available in the scholarly literature. The thesis also considers how the big constitutional questions of the age in the UK—questions relating, for example, to bills of rights and devolution—play out in the light of our discovery and appreciation of Griffith’s normative positivism.

Full text
Abstract:

This dissertation examines four utopian novels written by women: Sarah Scott’s Millenium Hall, Mary Griffith’s Three Hundred Years Hence, Harriet Beecher Stowe’s The Minister’s Wooing, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s Moving the Mountain. The works cover a 150-year span and yet suggest some commonalities that occur when women writers create utopian visions. In each work, improved marriages become a metaphor for the larger utopian communities, and each text expands women’s places in traditional married life. The writers attempt to create an environment that improves lived experiences, especially for women and children, and each work suggests that marriage experiences and marriage options can improve for women.

The first chapter examines Sarah Scott’s Millenium Hall, a utopian vision set in an eighteenth-century English country house. Her vision creates a secluded space where women find protection from patriarchal abuses; however, a major goal of the community is to train young women for marriage. The inclusion of the founders’ biographical vignettes shows the tension between the cloistered environment and the larger, contemporary community.

Chapters Two, Three, and Four consider utopian novels written by American writers. Each text is written on the cusp of a national calamity: the financial panic of 1837, the Civil War (1861-1865), and World War I (1914-1918). In the years leading up to these national tragedies, the three writers create hopeful utopias on American soil. Griffith’s work is the first known utopian novel written by an American woman. In it, she creates a futuristic space where women have solved many problems facing 1830’s women and families and women have gained equality with men. In Stowe’s utopia, women feminize religion and take on spiritual leadership roles within the domestic sphere, and former slaves live within the utopian community. Stowe’s work demonstrates the competence and superiority of women in roles traditionally reserved for males. Gilman’s work is a secular piece that grapples with utopia in an urban setting with females serving in leadership roles. Her text solves many social problems facing early twentieth-century America. Thus, each text radically expands contemporary marital opportunities for women.

Abstract:
Ce manuscrit est une contribution à l’étude de la propagation de fissure en fatigue à très grand nombre de cycles. Nous développons un outil numérique permettant de modéliser cette propagation de fissure en mode I et d’étudier la formation de l’œil de poisson, caractéristique de ce type de rupture. Premièrement, une procédure numérique itérative basée sur la méthode des éléments finis en 3D est développée pour étudier l’évolution de la forme de fissure au cours de la propagation et calculer le nombre de cycles de propagation lorsqu’un calcul analytique n’est pas possible. La méthode de fermeture virtuelle de fissure est utilisée pour calculer le facteur d’intensité de contraintes en chaque étape de propagation de la fissure. Deuxièmement, un modèle de couplage thermomécanique basé sur la méthode des éléments finis en 3D est proposé pour estimer l’évolution du champ température au cours de la propagation de fissure. Ce modèle consiste à tout d’abord calculer l’énergie de déformation plastique par cycle venant de la zone plastique cyclique au front de la fissure et utiliser ensuite une partie de cette énergie comme une source de chaleur mobile afin de calculer l’évolution de température. L’énergie de déformation plastique par cycle est déterminée par deux méthodes. L’une est basée sur un calcul élastoplastique en 3D avec un comportement élastique plastique parfait. L’autre s’appuie sur une relation empirique entre l’énergie de déformation plastique par cycle par unité de longueur de fissure et la variation du facteur d’intensité de contraintes. Les résultats numériques sont en bon accord avec des mesures expérimentales
This manuscript is a contribution to the study of the crack propagation in very high cycle fatigue domain. We develop a numerical tool which allows to model this crack propagation in mode I and to study the formation of fish eye crack, a characteristic of this failure. Firstly, an iterative numerical procedure based on three dimensional finite element method is developed to study the evolution of crack form during the crack propagation and to calculate the number of cycles to failure when it is not possible to find an analytical solution. The virtual crack closure technique is used to calculate the stress intensity factor in each step of crack growth process. Secondly, a coupled thermomecanical finite element model in 3D is proposed to estimate the evolution of the temperature field during the crack propagation. The problem is solved into 2 steps. In the first step, we calculate the plastic energy per cycle from the cyclic plastic zone at the crack front. In the second step, we use a fraction of this energy as a mobile heat source to estimate the temperature field evolution. The plastic energy per cycle is calculated by two methods. The first one is based on an elastic-plastic finite element analysis with a perfectly elastic-plastic constitutive law. The second one is based on an empirical relation between the energy plastic per cycle per unit of crack length and the range of stress intensity factor. Numerical results obtained agree fairly well with experimental results

Between 1740 and 1770, a number of women writers choose to make explicit in their printed texts their collaboration with a ‘familiar’: a family member or close friend. In so doing, they strategically enact their personal relationships through the medium of print in order to claim for themselves a level of literary power and delineate the terms on which they entered the marketplace as authors. This thesis argues that familiar relations expressed along a horizontal axis – those of husband, wife, brother, sister and friend – offer a relatively flexible model of familiar relations in which women could acquire a level of agency in self-definition, supported by ideologies that valued women’s contribution to the polite sphere of sociable conversation. It demonstrates that Elizabeth Griffith, Sarah Fielding, Jane Collier, and Susannah and Margaret Minifie not only engage in collaborative literary production that is thoroughly inflected with the pressures of their historical context but that through familiar collaboration women writers display their professional authorial personae and generate social and literary criticism. Through close readings of carefully selected collaborative texts in the corpus of each writer, including the material history of the texts themselves, and the relationships expressed through those texts, this thesis highlights the complexity with which family relations interacted with print culture in the period. Far from using the familiar relation as a means of modestly retiring to the domestic sphere these women writers used their familiar relations as a basis from which to launch, describe and defend their authorial careers.

Abstract:
We present a new coupled-field model for the dynamics of systems with evolving damage. The continuum model is developed using Hamilton’s Principle together with Griffith energy arguments, and captures the interaction between a meso-scale damage field variable and macroscopic vibrational displacements. The method of averaging is used to show that the nonautonomous coupled-field model gives the autonomous Paris’ Law as a special case.

Full text
Abstract:
The most common form of secondary containment for petroleum tanks is an earthen dike structure. Precast, pre-stressed concrete wall structures, however, can offer effective secondary containment, especially for sites that encroach on existing infrastructure, property limits, or environmentally sensitive areas. A secondary containment system constructed with concrete walls occupies a much smaller footprint than an earthen dike structure. This reduction in footprint can be critical, particularly in today’s expanding market which is placing increasing pressure on available site properties including, in many cases, the need to acquire permits for the development of environmentally sensitive areas. The new Tank #79 and Tank #80 projects at the Enbridge Griffith Terminal utilized an 880 lineal foot precast, pre-stressed concrete containment wall system. The existing site soils were sandy and unsuitable for containment berm construction. Therefore, earthen dike structure construction would have required imported clay material. However, the primary motivation for using the structural wall system at the Griffith Terminal was to reduce wetland impacts on the adjacent protected Hoosier Prairie Wetland. The concrete containment wall system saved approximately one half acre of wetland which significantly reduced wetland mitigation costs and also fulfilled the wetland permitting requirement to reduce (minimize) wetland disturbance. Finding a vendor with past experience in the fabrication of precast, pre-stressed concrete panels suitable for secondary containment was a challenge due to their limited prior use in similar containment wall systems. For the design, detailing and fabrication of this system Enbridge worked closely with precast concrete fabricators to define a typical pre-cast panel which was economical, could be easily installed, was structurally suitable for containment design forces and which would prove durable in a cold-weather environment. Additional considerations included proper sealing of adjacent wall panel joints, selecting and detailing a suitable impermeable liner to bridge the wall to the tank lot clay layer, and design and installation of supporting concrete caissons and steel piles for wall panel vertical and lateral support. The Tank #79 and #80 projects at the Griffith Terminal have benefited from the decision to depart from the traditional earthen berm and construct a structural containment wall system. These benefits included reduced wetland and overall project footprint impacts, accelerated project environmental permitting and an accelerated project construction schedule.

Full text
Abstract:
Desde mediados de los ochenta, cuando la economía se encontraba sumida en la crisis de la deuda, el ahorro y la inversión en Chile aumentaron dramáticamente. El ahorro lo ha hecho aún más que la inversión, revirtiendo el fuerte uso de recursos externos para financiar los niveles desmedrados de inversión de la primera mitad de la década pasada. Estas características del proceso de ahorro e inversión contrastan con lo acaecido en otros países de la región, donde la tasa de inversión se ha mantenido estancada y la tasa de ahorro nacional ha caído (Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo, 1996). Algunos de estos países -particularmente Argentina y México- iniciaron hace varios años programas de estabilización y cambio estructural orientados a darle al mercado una mayor importancia en la asignación de recursos con el objetivo de dinamizar la inversión y la tasa de crecimiento. Muchas de estas políticas habían sido puestas en práctica en Chile a partir de mediados de los setenta. Además, tanto Chile como otros países de la región han recibido cuantiosos flujos de capital durante los años noventa, relajando significativamente la restricción externa a la inversión (Calvo, Leiderman y Reinhardt, 1993; Ffrench-Davis y Griffith-Jones, 1995). Sin embargo, sólo en Chile se ha dado un aumento importante en las tasas de ahorro e inversión.
